Watch the first five minutes of Ricky Gervais' latest film

I think I was one of the few people who actually really enjoyed THE INVENTION OF LYING and, as such, was looking forward to Ricky Gervais' follow-up, CEMETERY JUNCTION. Unfortunately when the film was released in the UK, it didn't perform as well as some had hoped and plans for a theatrical release here in the States were scrapped.

Instead the film, co-directed by Gervais and his "The Office" co-creator Stephen Merchant, will hit DVD shelves today. Despite its talented creative team, CEMETERY wasn't a full-fledged comedy. It's more of a coming-of-age drama set in the 1970s. It looks like the perfect kind of movie that could get lost in theaters but could be a gem on home video. Luckily Yahoo! has the first five minutes of the film available so you can watch and see if it's up your alley. Check out the vid below...
